                        Save your minutes, give your life dear

                        Breathe in every drop of blood you bear

                 Black were the sunsets, bright were the midnights

                                    No one is watching us

                                 Struggling in violent words

                 Cold was her soul every night that she thought of it

                                  Daylight was almost over

                            There she lay terrified in her bed

                       Wrapped in blankets, strangling in her head

                               She was doing almost fine

                   Until she heard her own voice cutting the line

                               Riversides flooded with blood

                  Till they uttered “Marjorie has given up”
